Guest guest Posted June 20, 2000 Report Share Posted June 20, 2000 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=unknown-8bit There is no difference in the activities between Vaidhi Sadhana and Raganuga Sadhana. They are both same. But they are like two sides of a leaf, the top smooth surface is raganuga and the bottom rough surface is Vaidhy. For example a vaidhy gets up for Mangala Arathi keeping an alarm clock or the Guru may wake him up by ringing a bell. A raganuga automatically gets up for Mangalarati with clock wise precision. But in both cases they must get up for Mangalarathi. A vaidhy takes a cold shower in the morning grudgingly or feeling austerity. A raganuga takes a cold shower (pratah snana) joyously. But in both cases they must take a cold shower. A vaidhy performs the devotional activities by some external force, either Guru, Sadhu or Shastra may be that force. A raganuga also performs devotional service based on Guru, Sadhu and Shastra but voluntarily in a joyous mood. Therefore the activities of vaidhy and raganuga are both same but only the mood of the sadhaka is different. Your humble servant, Bhadra Govinda Das.
